With the misfortune of the Bathurst factory burning down in 2212 along with countless Victorias, Namarrkuns, and Hypernados turned to ash; Lennart decided its best option was to downsize and relocate to its smaller Melbourne based facility. Lennart regained traction in the automotive world with aid from US based firms Cipher and Rogue; and in order to regain public awareness Lennart's first new car is the Hypernado M. With a new beginning came a new platform. The original Hypernado was a super-ute capable of going toe-to-toe with most supercars of its time, but the future now plays a different bloodsport and Lennart used its hiatus to adapt and create a contender for the 2215 crop of supercars. A radical new design language, active aerodynamics, and a trick suspension are the three main features that distinguish the new Hypernado from the old.
The original Hypernado was built upon a chomoly chassis, dressed in Aluminum body panels. The second generation utilizes a full carbon monocoque for rigidity and titanium alloy subframes. The M features more standard comforts than the original, although minimalistic in design the Hypernado has a sound system, StrataFoam seats, and even a high efficiency HVAC system. A fully customizable and interconnected hydraulic suspension insures that the Hypernado M is both competitive and comfortable; drivers can choose from preset configurations or adjust every suspension and wheel component geometry setting as desired.
Lennart left the original's ute layout in the past, and for its second generation the Hypernado is an entirely different beast. The M is propelled by a mid-rear mounted 5.0 liter V8; the same V8 found in Fuego Motorworks' Tyranno T-RX, only this time around the Aussies have opted for turbochargers in place of a supercharger. The turbos and a newly minted ECU give the Hypernado a 130 hp bump in power over the supercharged Tyranno engine. The change in forced induction allows the Hypernado to reach a top speed of 260 mph, and although turbocharged the M can accelerate from 0-60 in just under three seconds.
The carbon body of the Hypernado is shaped not only to intimidate, but to cut through the air as effortlessly as possible. The headlights sit in front of an air vent and are contoured to act as winglets, assisting the front splitter with downforce generation. The upper half of the body is designed to direct as much wind as it can onto the dynamic separated rear spoiler. The underside of the Hypernado is engineered to be flat and channeled; allowing the air to flow onto the diffuser with minimal obstruction or turbulence, further pressing the car onto the road.
The Hypernado M will be built in limited numbers in the new Melbourne facility. Lennart is confident in the abilities of its car and hopes that the new Hypernado will be a success and serious competitor to its contemporaries since its sales will not be limited to only Australia. Lennart also has their eyes set on the 2216 BLMS Unlimited series and have begun a development program to enter a race ready Hypernado.
